Introducing Your Cisco IP Phone

Transcription

1 CHAPTER 1 A Cisco IP Phone is a full-feature telephone that provides voice communication over the same data network that your computer uses. This phone functions much like a traditional analog phone, allowing you to place and receive telephone calls. It also supports features that you have come to expect from a telephone such as speed dialing, redial, call transfer, conference calling, and voice mail access. Your Cisco IP Phone offers features that might surprise you. Because it is part of an IP network, your Cisco IP Phone can provide not only telephony services, but data services, too including up-to-the-minute information and services from the network. In a nutshell, your Cisco IP Phone provides a whole range of communication features that you could not expect from a traditional telephone. This guide helps you learn to use the various features and services available on your phone. Not all of the features described in this book are available by default your administrator may not add them for you. You access some phone features and services on the phone itself, while you customize others on a convenient web page. For information about the User Options web page, see Customizing Your Phone From the User Options Web Pages, page This chapter contains the following sections: Connecting Your Cisco IP Phone, page 1-2 A Road Map to Your Cisco IP Phone, page 1-6 Using the Feature Buttons, page 1-10 Navigating on Your Phone, page 1-11 Using the Handset, Headset, and Speakerphone, page 1-12 Customizing Your Phone From the User Options Web Pages, page

2 Connecting Your Cisco IP Phone Connecting Your Cisco IP Phone Chances are, your system administrator or a technician will connect your new Cisco IP Phone to the corporate IP telephony network. If that is not the case, connecting your phone is easy. Follow the steps below. Refer to to locate ports on the back of your phone. Before You Begin Verify that your system administrator is ready for you to connect your Cisco IP Phone to the network. Warning Be sure to read Appendix B, Safety Notices, before connecting or using your phone. Step 1 Step 2 Connect your Cisco IP Phone to the corporate IP telephony network. You can do this in one of two ways, depending on how your workspace is set up. See your system administrator if you are not sure which method to choose: Direct network connection For this method, you need at least one available Ethernet port in your workspace. Use the Ethernet cable included with your phone to connect the network port on the back of your phone to the Ethernet port in your workspace. Shared network connection Use this method if you have a single Ethernet port in your workspace with your desktop computer already connected to it. First, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the computer and attach it to the network port on the back of your phone. Next, use the Ethernet cable included with your phone to connect the access port on the back of your phone to your desktop computer. Your Cisco IP Phone now shares a network connection with your computer. Connect the handset to the handset port. Ensure that the end of the cord with the longer uncoiled section is connected to the body of the phone. 1-2

3 Connecting Your Cisco IP Phone Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 If your system administrator delivered your Cisco IP Phone with a power supply, connect the power supply plug to the DC48V AC adapter port on the back of the phone. If your system administrator delivered your phone without a power supply, your phone probably receives power through the Ethernet connection. Use the power cable to connect the power supply to a standard power outlet in your workspace. To adjust the footstand height, release the footstand by pressing the footstand adjustment knob and gently pull the footstand away from the body of the phone. See the Adjusting the Handset Rest section on page 1-12 for information on adjusting the handset rest to make sure the receiver will sit securely in the cradle. Once you connect the Cisco IP Phone to its power source, a start-up process begins. After several minutes, the phone s LCD screen displays a neutral ready screen. The details on your screen might vary, but a ready screen typically displays the date and time, your extension number, and available soft keys. Startup is complete and your phone is ready to use. Tip Soft keys point to feature options displayed along the bottom of your LCD screen. Soft keys are flexible they change depending on the status of your phone. For example, you can see one set of soft key options when you pick up the handset, and another set when the phone is not in use. 1-3

5 Auto-Registering Your Phone Using TAPS Auto-Registering Your Phone Using TAPS, page 1-5 A Road Map to Your Cisco IP Phone, page 1-6 Using the Handset, Headset, and Speakerphone, page 1-12 Auto-Registering Your Phone Using TAPS Your administrator may ask you to auto-register your Cisco IP Phone using TAPS, the Tool for Auto-Registered Phones Support. TAPS might be used either for a new phone or to replace an existing phone. Note You should follow this procedure only if your phone administrator asks you to. Procedure Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 If the phone is not already installed, follow the installation instructions available in the Connecting Your Cisco IP Phone section on page 1-2. After you plug the phone into a port, the phone automatically registers and displays a number. Dial the TAPS extension provided by your system administrator. A voice prompt asks you to select the language that you want to use. Choose appropriately. Dial your personal extension number (provided by your system administrator), then press the # key. Note You may be instructed to enter the complete telephone number (including area code). 1-5

6 A Road Map to Your Cisco IP Phone Step 5 Step 6 To confirm, enter your personal extension number again, followed by the # key. The phone displays a confirmation message. Hang up the phone. The phone resets and displays your extension number.

Softkeys point to feature options displayed along the bottom of your LCD screen. Softkeys change depending on the status of your phone. For example, you can see one set of softkey options when you pick up the handset, and another set when the phone is not in use. Using the Feature Buttons, page 1-10 Navigating on Your Phone, page

10 Using the Feature Buttons Using the Feature Buttons Your Cisco IP Phone has five feature buttons: Services button Displays services on your phone s LCD screen.
